Xbox 360 fans lusting after ota-idol Shoko-tan have been dealt another grievous blow with the news that she gave away a number of Xbox 360 games, without even bothering to play them.
“I’ll giving away a set of Xbox 360 games I haven’t played yet,” according Shoko-tan in her blog.
Among the titles were Lost Odyssey, Fable II, Gears of War, Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise, Forza 2 and Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts. Notable by its absence is her prized beta copy of Tales of Vesperia…
Ironically, the fan that won the set does not even own an Xbox according to Shoko-tan.
Doubtless he would never even consider playing them anyway, as to an otaku such hallowed relics demand reverential ensconcement in some sort of reliquary, or at least lucrative disposal by way of Yahoo! Auctions…

The day Micro$hit releases an X360 error free, is the day I will buy one... Until then, no buy. I'm sticking to my PS3.
My brothers have had 2 RROD, a friend had 3, another had 1 and several 360s I've seen in stores for display had either a RROD or the E64, if I remember correctly.
How's that for unreliable?
not play Viva Pinata! that is a sin....
Her boobs sit low on her chest...
lol shoko-tan you troll you.
Shoko-tan uses betrayal
Its super effective!!
360 fans faint!
Microsoft is out of usable Chumps!!
Meh, why bother with console games when you can lick cat's balls?
Meh, all western games... no japanese play these games DUH? Great games all but never have played the Lost Odyssey, gonna give it a try someday ;)
Mine hasn't had an RRoD. The Console Gods favor me!
Damn you
Games hardly played by anyone anyway.
Fable 2 and Gears of War? Either Shoko is lying about not having played them yet, or she's got some pretty sorry decision-making skills
Maybe she was a crapy "idol" for the 360 in the first place considering she doesn't even play the games, some betrayal. Its all marketing.
She doesn't even play games! It's all a front! She's just trying to get publicity.
Because she works a lot, so yeah its a front.
I kinda would have assumed she would have at least played the games once...
So another person who didn't play some games for whatever reason is giving away the games, cool free ment condition games.
Who cares about Shoko-tan?
Yeah really! Maybe she doesn't even like xbox360. She says that just to get a job!
She should have just give away her 360 as well.
not really
otaku would surely love viva pinata
How is this a betrayal exactly? They all a bit shit.
I want to play with her. I'd start with that shiny enema pistol.
360 for halo 3 and osdt ;)
The first picture looks shoped.
She could've made a mint tossing an autographed photo inside each case and auctioning the games off individually. Hell, she could autograph a photo of Princess Peach and it'd still work.
Seriously, this kind of topics are just stupid...
Welcome to Sankaku Complex.
The real question im interested in is, who is Shoko-tan and why should I care? What has she done for the 360 that makes this a "betrayal"?
Last time checked the 360 was not that popular in Japan anyway, even though its more popular than the original X-box.
Honestly this whole console war is getting old. I have a 360 and have the option of getting a PS3 if I wanted to. And my parents have a Wii that I can play if I ever get that bored. But like iv said in other topics, it boils down to what games you like to play.
Idort.
GTFO non otaku console fanboy
"GTFO non Anime console fanboy"
nice engrish
You are still missing PSP,PS3,NDS and Wii
New to being an anime otaku, sir?
No no, im an anime fan, sir. Im just a gamer first and an anime fan second. And as a gamer i have no biest opinion towards any of the consoles. Its simple, if a game kicks ass I play it, regardless of what console it maybe on.
And the fact that some Japanese idol may or may not play one of the consoles dose not feel me with rage. I could care less.
"Going to a anime based website "
"anime based"
"Sankaku Complex - Anime, manga, and games, observed from Japan"
*shrugs* Free time has nothing to do with it. Iv been playing video games for over 25 years. And the console war is nothing new. They been going on since the days of the Atari. Just tired of hearing about them on anime websites.
Word someone need to start reading.
It dosnt not make him a gamer ether.
Really I just laugh at these forum posts. Going to a anime based website and finding 360 haters or ps3 fanboys is like going to a Apple Store and finding a Mac fanboy. This site should stick to anime leave the Xbos 360 vs ps3 war to the gamers. Hah!
Your right Geerie, playing halo dosnt make me a gamer. The fact that I own a:
NES
Gameboy (original)
GameGear
Sega Genises
SNES
Sega CD
Playsation
N64
Dreamcast
Playsation 2
Game Boy Advanced
Game Cube
Xbox
Xbox 360
And a custom built gaming PC, makes me a gamer. But hey, halo is a good game too.
You must have a lot of free time on your hands.
playing halo doesnt make you gamer
you need to level up your internetz
Just some celebrity gamer in Japan famous for being female, reasonably good looking and having an online gamertag/profile.
PS3 ftw.
How dare she not play Lost Odyssey! Other games are crap thou so whatever.
Maybe she had two
The otaku has been rumored to have already bought an egregious amount of plastic wrap to make cleaning of the games easier after extended fapping sessions.
With the exception of Lost Odyssey, not the most appealing of games for a Japanese market...
It's sad but it's over for the XBOX 360.
Stop lying to yourself. In Japan, it fails, but in the rest of the world, it triumphs. Wii excluded.
In USA it's triumphs. In rest of world it's hardly on 3rd place (hardly, 'cause we can count PC as game platform.)
It's because the Xbox 360 is the console of LOLSHOOTERS and the same damn EASPORTS game you bought ten years ago, which is popular among the many gun-toting hillbillies and beer-bong-chugging frat fags throughout the country. Granted, there are a few shining gems (Eternal Sonata, Fable II...I'm sure there's more), but the rest of the heap, regardless of how good they might be, is made almost entirely of shooters and the odd racing/sports game that isn't made by EA.
Rest of the world doesn't matter, only the USA. /sarcasm
truthfully, xbox 360 is generally seen as the non hardcore player or the children's console. That said, it does have a few nice shooters but i have always been a sony fanboy and a nintendo fanboy.
it's a
sonylawl
Its the Otaku's console of choice in Japan.
There's a reason why large numbers of Visual Novels, im@s and dream club are there.
Zeebo isn't even on the same level of those consoles, and with the extensive list of crappy titles I doubt they are hoping a lot from the international market, let alone japanese...
Actually, it'll be hard enough for Zeebo to have success in the brazilian market.
But back to the 360, yeah, it's what ALL console companies to. Gather exclusive titles to grab hold on a share of the market.
360 will NEVER be over in Japan as long as they have im@s. [/thread]
adopt Saturn tactic
insert Saturn tactic
It's the Otaku's console of choice because MS paid for the exclusives, just to get the 360 moving in Japan in the first place. JRPGs move consoles... cue DQ9 and the DS. That's something they learned after Xbox1.
An Otaku would sacrifice health and cup o noodles money just to buy their favorite galgame, regardless of the platform.
Here's a message to the Brazilian manufacturer of the craptactular console Zeebo: if ever you want to push units in Japan, get some developers to make exclusive visual novels for it. The otaku will 100% buy it if it's content they love.
360 sucks
Indeed.
Now that's the kind of insightful, well thought out comment that I enjoy reading.
Well said
She's traumatized by Teh Epic Red Circle of Death XDDDDDDDDDD
When they fixed red ring another error started breaking the xbox360. E45 I believe. You start up your 360 and a lovely skull appears on your screen.
Someone really hates you, Storm Wing.
My neighbour just got himself an RROD yesterday.
My classmate got hers, last week.
@ Anonymous 31-07-2009 (01:46): Yeah, i think i KNOW who he (or she) is. But don't mind that immature person. Let's all get along nice & easy~ ^_^
Har har ^^;;
I don't own any consoles. PC is all i need for now...
Pff, get over yourselves.
Just cause you dont like it doesnt mean its a bad console. They fixed the problem ages ago, holding a childish grudge against it is just kinda pathetic.
I'm not taking sides though, I like the ps3 and xbox just as much as eachother O o
But the petty squabbles over which console is better kind of annoys me >_>"
I'm curious how she got those games. I highly doubt she went out and purchased them on a whim. Doesn't even seem like genres she'd be interested in.
Considering her line of work, I doubt she has to pay for anything at all. I'm sure there are people other than her managers that would be willing to pay for her wants and needs, so it doesn't seem unusual that donations and goodies are unusual.
The red ring of death was a shameful failure on Microsoft's part. Seriously, Sony should have launched a marketing campaign to take em down for that one.
No U Sucks *cries*
If she still had it, I wish she'd give away her virginity instead.
Like she hasn't been deflowered
Who cares?!
Which would you prefer: a fresh-from-the-factory Yugo, or a used-but-well-cared-for Lamborghini Gallardo?
I'd take the Gallardo.
i'd take the yugo if the gallardo's seat were once filled and covered with someone else's cum.
^this, KorTaku has wise words of wisdom.
Will all her otaku zombie fans who go out and buy a PS3 be enough for it to overtake 360 worldwide and actually make sony some profit!?!?
Nope.
somehow I don't think she'd enjoy gears of war anyway XD
Considering she draws psudeo-guro artwork, I wouldn't be surprised if she did.
SO ENRAGED IF I OWNED HER CDS I'D SMASH THEM
don't waste it.
These dics are from shoko-tan. you dont get something from an Idol everyday.
If I were to recieve those dics, I'd insert my dick in the hole of the disc.
Fairly small isn't it.
but she touched the box casing...
I think the matter of questioning here is not the size of his member, but the fact that he would opt to fornicate with a CD that was contained within an unused copy of a game owned by an idol. Not only does it not resemble the idol in any physical or mental form, but it is simply imhumane. It'd probably be better to fap to a picture of Shoko-tan than do the CD.
Yeah wtf Lost Odyssey...stupid bitch got no taste in games. She became shit right now.
I don't care; PC ftw.
Im not surprised that a girl wouldn't like gears of war...
but viva piñata? Lost Oddisey?
And Forza 2?
Cheers,
Nick
She still fills me with desire, so who cares?
shoo shoo 360 shoo shoo ps3 is godly lah,not like xbox so SUCK.u hear me fanboys 360 S-U-C-K ala man nice thing i didnt buy a 360 so suck lah.come flame me 360 fanboys i like seeing u guy get mad xD
Indeed. It was so good that now I don't want to own either the PS3 nor the 360
This is how PS3 trolling works. Thumbs up
i would very much want those games plz i already have them but i want her games...
You people that are PS3 Fanboys are assholes, I own all 3 next gen consoles and they all have their own perks and faults. PS3 even has its, one it's a sucky console for online play, Xbox 360 sucks for stand alone game play. PS3 is over priced and they're losing tons of a money on the system, Xbox 360 not so much, so I wish people in here would quit bitching about what console is better. They're all good for their own. Even the Wii, it's a family console, not made to compete with PS3 or 360 and it's killing both in the market. So instead of whining about the Xbox 360 all the time maybe you should take time and bitch about Super Fucking Mario for a change.
That is why sir, I own a PC, and a borrowed Wii
I feel so betrayed I'll buy a PS3.
Best paperweight ever. It can even play blu-ray movies!
ps3 sucks
No it doens't, she just a whore.
Right of corse. Because playing both the 360 and PS3 makes you a whore. In that case I must be a down right slut since iv owned every majer console since the NES.
you filthy aidswoman
HAHA you wish, Sissy.
Im a guy -_-
you suck
